Finished gluing the pool and the travertine edging.

no diving
Okay, broke down and bought more smalti today. Home Depot has an entire line of travertine mosaic tiles. So exciting for me because that is what we have around the pool and the patio. John did the back porch steps with the travertine pavers last year. It is a natural stone and reminds me of the keystone in Florida. It also stays cooler than the concrete and adds a great organic feel.

old bottles
I got all of these at the thrift store for 1.50. What a deal. Looks like some more altered bottles in my future.

no diving
I tried to get John to give me some money for some smalti. Looks like I may have it covered. Did some gold leaf work behind the water so it will catch the sun. Really like it so far. Haven't glued anything down just playing with the colors.

no diving
My no diving sign was damaged in a wind storm last summer. Will give me the chance to do it again and better this time. Dang. I have been erasing for days trying to get the letters just right. I like the "N" now but it is a little to close to the edge. Should I move it??
